Fixed in pull-request https://github.com/jenkinsci/git-plugin/pull/309

Hi Jean,

I am having some problems with my CI server too and I am wondering if it is the same problem !
Configuration is the same :

• A basic multi-branch job with a parametrized build with parameter BRANCH_TO_BUILD, default **
• Git SCM with branch specifier "${BRANCH_TO_BUILD}"
• SCM polling enabled

Basically what I would like is for the job to trigger a build on any branch (develop, master, feature/xx) if there is a commit on it. I can also manually build a specific branch

What seems to happen is that Jenkins will only poll changes in the branch I manually build. For example :
• if I build manually /develop, afterward my automatic poll will only track changes in develop http://i.imgur.com/8L5tuTS.png
• if I the trigger on manually build with parameter ** then the automatic poll will correctly track all branches http://i.imgur.com/HgBwRMM.png

I believe this is the same issue (or maybe https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-27349 - all 3 seems related) but please confirm otherwise I will open a dedicated issue

Nicolas - your setup sounds like ours. With Jean's patches, and with our jobs configured to require a workspace for polling, it works as we expect. So I don't think you need a new ticket - you either need to manually build the plugin with Jean's changes or wait for them to be included in a release.

Log:
JENKINS-27352 Fix commit notification for a parametrized branchspec

When the branchspec is parametrized, and a commit notification is received for
the tracked repository, the polling is always triggered, even if a sha1 was
received.

Also, add some FINE logs to the notifyCommit code.

Fix included in git plugin 2.4.0 released 18 July 2015

Using Jenkins LTS version 1.609.2 and git plugin 2.4.0. This fix may break builds when there are some default parameters. When job is triggered by hand, parameters are present. When build is triggered by commit notification, parameters are gone.
